NCAA Corporate Relationships

The NCAA works with some of America's top corporations to help promote the value of athletics in education. The companies provide funding and expertise to support youth programs, fan interactive experiences and scholarship programs for student-athletes, in addition to promoting the excitement of the NCAA's championships.

The NCAA Corporate Champion and Corporate Partner Program is committed to developing marketing and promotional activities surrounding NCAA championships. The NCAA is privileged to work with these outstanding corporate citizens that provide their commitment of dollars, personnel and expertise to benefit intercollegiate athletics.

NCAA Corporate Champions and Corporate Partners support all 89 NCAA Championships and are granted a wide variety of benefits, including certain category exclusivity around use of NCAA logos, marks, designations and championship tickets.

Turner Sports and CBS Sports have the exclusive rights to license NCAA marks, tickets and taglines in commercial promotions with respect to the NCAA championships and hold certain exclusive media rights in the Division I Men’s Basketball Championship.
